That's always been like a fascination to me - watching my family, three sisters and a brother and all growing up basically in the same situation and each one being so totally different and going on to completely different areas and directions. But for me to go into psychoanalysis really steadily, would be putting too much energy into trying to figure out why I am the way I am... Basically this is how I am and it's alright and I don't want to know why I'm this way.
Jessica LangeI've worked with some teachers and coaches over the years, but I didn't really study theater or technique or voice or any of that stuff extensively.

I got involved with like a small kind of like experimental theater-mime company and we discovered that รtienne Decroux, a great mime, was still teaching in Paris so I went to study with him for several years.
